Random photo of me in Andalusia nearly twenty years ago<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Due to my health issues, I have not been able to get out and take any photographs for about three years. As I am feeling a bit better, I thought I should have an audit of where I had got back then, and I have a look at my cameras; the ones which were in use when I was taken ill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have two older 35mm SLRs, one with colour film already in it, and the other with black and white film, Yashica and Fujica respectively). I also have a compact Olympus which is mechanically sound, in which I have loaded another colour film. I paid \u00a32.50 for it in a charity shop, which I know because I still have their price ticket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have a 120-format camera also with film in it, a digital Fujica bridge camera and a Canon compact digital camera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am not sure whether I will have the opportunity to put these cameras to use but hope so. It will be interesting to see what pictures are already on film. Of course, the films may have deteriorated but that will add to the fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have other cameras including two other 35mm SLRs, which I have acquired for little money or been given. I do not have a modern digital SLR and at the moment do not \u201cneed\u201d one. The bridge camera can suffice for the digital world and the Canon compact is quite decent too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
